Young Guns - In The Night
Young Guns are one of those bands that I feel are going to sneak up behind you, hardly noticed, and then just become incredibly well-known overnight. A bit like Fall Out Boy. But with good songs.
The Buckinghamshire based quintet claim to be ‘trouble in the best way possible’ to be honest I’ve never known trouble to be a good thing, but if that’s what they’re saying, I guess we can run with it for a while.
The single itself is pretty much what you’d expect from the newest rock band on the scene, trashing guitars, pounding drums, and vocals that make you go a bit funny in your belly.
It’s really nice to see Gustav Wood not jumping on the screamo bandwagon that a lot of bands in their genre seem to be clamouring onto, he has a super delicious voice and it’s no wonder that these fellas have clocked up the air miles, well motorway miles, with the likes of Funeral For A Friend, Lagwagon and 2008’s best export, You Me At Six.
But don’t fear boys and girls, you haven’t missed the Young Guns gig train just yet though, as they are just about to swan off with We Are The Ocean on a tour of the UK in January.
So if you want to know who the hottest new talent of 2009 is before all your friends; these guys are an absolute must.
Rating: 5/5 - These guys look set to make my top 10 bands in no time. And they’re a bit fit too.
